This stunning castle for sale was originally built in the middle of the 12th century and is surrounded by the soft green hills west of the Chianti area.
Like other properties in this area this used to be a fortification used for defence purposes on the border between the Republic of Siena and Florence. Later, at the end of the 16th century, the castle lost its original function and was gradually transformed into a charming hamlet.
Restored in the early 1900's, it is perfectly preserved to this day and has been converted into a luxury hotel.
With an indoor floor surface of 800 m2, this luxury property for sale offers its guests a truly enchanting atmosphere . Here one can admire works of art and original ancient frescos, paintings from the Renaissance period, bronzes, sculptures and majolica, carefully preserved by the owners who have also upgraded the building, adding all modern conveniences, conferring a truly welcoming and homely atmosphere.
The interiors, which are spacious and bright, are particularly striking for their elegance and are as spectacular as the outside of the building with its crenelated roof top, the decorations, arches and brick mullioned windows.
Three apartments complete this historic castle with a total of 150 m2, plus deposits, changing rooms, a 70 m2 gym and a beautiful 4000m2 garden.
A 1.5 hectare olive grove with 160 splendid plants also surrounds this castle in Tuscany for sale.
